Study Evaluating the Utility of 18F-FDG PET in Assessing Early Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Patients With Mammary Gland Cancer
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
FDG PET: FDG PET1 before neoadjuvant chemotherapy FDG PET2 after one cycle of neoadjuvant chemotherapy
Study summary
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is frequently proposed to patients with mammary gland cancer. The aim is to reduce tumor volume before surgical therapy. Obtaining a pathologic Complete Response (pCR) is regarded as a good prognostic factor with less risk of recurrence. The rate of pCR is about 20%, although there are important variations according to tumor subtype and the type of treatment. The objective of the new therapeutic strategies is to increase this response rate.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the possibility of early evaluation of neoadjuvant chemotherapy response after one cycle of neoadjuvant chemotherapy by positron emission tomography (PET) with (18) F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) in patients.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- difference of Δ SUV (Standardised Uptak Value) between 18F-FDG PET 1 and 18F-FDG PET2 to predict pCR during neoadjuvant chemotherapy — early metabolic response mesure by 18F-FDG PET (difference of Δ SUV) at 3 weeks after neoadjuvant chemotherapy to predict pathologic Complete Response (pCR) by exploiting PET data realized before treatment (PET1) and after a cure of chemothrapy (PET2)
